companies are capable of operating under different rules in different jurisdictions, they do it all the time. just look at how they handle data in EU due to GDPR vs how they do it everywhere else. I don’t see why this case would be much different.

ok but I’m not in the EU nor is my instance so that doesn’t really apply to me.

yeah, I see them being posted into their DB (and therefore federated as) a post as if they are a user. they can earmark that post as an ad and properly present it as such in their own platform but anyone federated would see the post as-is.
they could either obfuscate how they mark it as an ad or just not provide that information at all to federating instances.
then I can totally see them claiming they don’t control other instances and can’t be responsible for whether or not the federated ads are presented as such.
they technically could do this by representing ads with posts.
I think you’re still right though. regardless of the situation with HP, he still created a company that, when sold, made him a billionaire. I don’t think that is possible without also exploiting people.

but if they don’t walk the knife’s edge of allowing fascism, how are the ultra-wealthy Democrats supposed to make line go up?
my preference is Xitter (pronounced shitter)
America’s liberals have wanted gun control. go far enough left and you get your guns back.
we probably need to transition to bringing our own reusable packaging/bottling for that stuff.
only types 1 and 2 are really recyclable and even those can only be recycled once or twice before the polymers are basically ruined and can’t be used again
i totally agree, i didn’t quite state it but was basing my comment in the status quo. without being able to personally change the world’s economic model, one has to make decisions in the context of the current one.
i think another factor is that we are reaching or have maybe surpassed the earth’s carrying capacity for humans, which is only going to get worse with climate change. in the past, more kids also meant more labor and there was still lots of land to colonize and spread into with those extra people. but we already have more than enough people and no realistic places left to expand.
don’t worry, there’s a lot of men that get fucked too
